what clients are saying

“Alive Events and Entertainment provides more than just excellent music, they provide the peace of mind that your DJ will be reliable, professional and that your party will have a great vibe. Working with Kevin Manning of Alive Events was the easiest part of the planning for my medium sized wedding reception. He was able to put together a great playlist based on some ideas and input from my fiancé and I, he was quick to work out the logistics of setting up and testing before the event and his very personable approach made me breathe easier. Best of all our party lasted into the early morning because my guests couldn’t stop dancing to the great music. If you’re looking for professionalism combined with a superb knowledge and ability to provide great music, I’d strongly recommend Alive Events.” — Tara, The Marketing Method Group “Kevin and Alive Events are complete professionals and a pleasure to invite to your next function. From set up to party’s end, Kevin was accommodating, unobtrusive and focused on providing guests with whatever music was needed to make their experience a fun one. We would certainly use and recommend Kevin again.” -Marcia J. Schwartz, Manager, Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage, Berkeley Kevin Manning and Alive events have been the “go to” music resource for ALL of our special events for the past 5 or more years. Our events feature a wide variety of music genres and themes, each time Kevin and Alive deliver content applicable to the event. I honestly cannot think of an event that He has done for me where the attendees were not only blown away, but raving about it for weeks after. Guests still talk about these events years later-as they are so memorable. He and his company are constantly put in the situation where they LITERALLY can make or break an event – and he ALWAYS makes. From the music format to the sound quality, nothing is left to chance. Can’t say enough good things-any event would be lucky to have Kevin and Alive events involved. -Jeffrey Levine, Golden Goods USA Hi Kevin, I just want to thank you one more to for DJ’ing my last event. Once again you proved to be a showstopper and once again your flexible repertoire came thru big time. My guests loved your music and as always you knew what they wanted to hear. We all danced for hours and your touch made the event spectacular. Again, thanks so much for your stellar efforts and making my party a smashing success. I look forward to another event soon with you on hand as musical director. Sincerely, -Kevin O’Connor, RITCHIE Commercial “Kevin (DJ Consuelo) provides a current soundtrack with a connoisseur’s sophistication and musical finesse.” -Dustin Starting from the very beginning, Tiffany and I took on a tall task putting the wedding together without a coordinator. Of all the aspects/vendors of the wedding you were by far the easiest to work with. I could tell early on from our communication that you were organized, knew what you were doing and reliable. In addition, it was super helpful that you invited Tiff and our crew to come check you out. Your mixes were clean, music was on point and most importantly the dancefloor was alive and heads at the bar were nodding. That and the fact you can mix and match snares really did it for us. During our wedding you did not disappoint. Everyone kept dancing and the party was dope. After the wedding I heard that your wife had to go and get electrical supplies we failed to supply! I can’t thank you and her enough for that and truly is a testament to you the professionalism you possess. Thanks again Kevin for being exactly what we were looking for. A DJ with skills who put on the classics to the currents, mixing songs I knew and songs you put me onto. Kept the party jumping and was reliable and self sufficient the whole time. Let’s keep in touch. Tiff and I hope to be on a dancefloor soon featuring Kevin Manning on the ones and twos. Sincerely, -Braz and Tiffany Salangsang

additional testimonials

Phil S. San Francisco, CA11/15/2011 "I work in the hospitality industry and our company includes the historic Julia Morgan Ballroom. The ballroom does over 70 weddings a year and I can honestly say that Kevin Manning is on the top of my list. His company works with the same mindset that ours does. That means honesty, integrity, and of course the highest quality. I obviously highly recommend Kevin and Alive Events."
